=?iso-8859-1?Q?Alfons_Str=F6bele?=

Hi everybody out there,

I'd like to run a .NET database application
(based on the Jet-Engine 4.0) on an old Win 98 OS.
I installed the dotnetfx and the MDAC 2.7.
Starting the program results in in exception,
telling me that the OLEDB-database provider
is missing.

Why isn't it installed by MDAC2.7??

What do I have to do, to get the program running??

Thanks for any advice.

Alf

You are right. It is not installed by MDAC 2.7: "This release does not
include Microsoft Jet, the Microsoft Jet OLE DB Provider, the Desktop
Database Drivers ODBC Driver, or the Visual FoxPro ODBC Driver."
